Today's Dropping Bombs episode features Dylan Crane — former pro basketball player turned insurance sales machine who claims to be the #1 insurance producer in America.
Dylan breaks down how he went from the hardwood to writing $1.9 million in life insurance his first year, hitting $120K in his pocket by month two, and how his sports mentality is the reason most people simply can't keep up. He also gets into the lead system that prints money, why most agents fail before they ever find their stride, and the step-by-step blueprint he's using to build one of the largest insurance agencies in America.
Oh — and he's thinking about running for president. No big deal.
Whether you're already in insurance or just tired of trading time for a paycheck, this one's worth your full attention.
